About the Event
This biking scavenger hunt benefits two Baltimore-based nonprofits: the Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter and Bikemore. Our event is in the style of an “Alley Cat” or “Rat Race,” which are part bike race, part scavenger hunt—rewarding a mix of strategy and speed. Therefore, we thought it only right to name ours the Dog Cat Rat 🐕🐈🐀 to represent all the types of critters BARCS takes in every year as an open-admission shelter!
👨👩👧👦 The Baltimore Dog Cat Rat is a family-friendly version, where teams of 3–5 ride around Herring Run Park and the connecting neighborhoods of Hamilton-Lauraville, stopping at designated checkpoints to play games 🎯 and earn points for their team.
🏆 The teams with the most points will win prizes at the after-party 🎉 at The Lot in Lauraville, where BARCS will also bring some adorable adoptable pups 🐶 to celebrate with riders.
